EDELRID Helios Harness: Lightweight Performance, Unrivaled Comfort

Category: Climbing Equipment
Subcategory: Harnesses

Discover the pinnacle of climbing harness design with the EDELRID Helios. Engineered for climbers who demand the highest performance without sacrificing comfort, the Helios is the ultimate all-around harness for sport, alpine, and trad climbing. It sets a new standard for what a lightweight harness can be, allowing you to focus on your ascent, whether you´re working a project or moving fast in the mountains.

Incredible comfort coupled with a low weight and a compact pack size—this is the best way to summarize the HELIOS. This harness is meticulously designed to provide exceptional support and freedom of movement, making it the ideal choice for both men and women.

Our innovative 3D Pad technology adopts the concept of the 3D-shaped waist belt and leg loops but the padding is minimized to strategically useful places, where it is intensively used. This intelligent design ensures support precisely where you need it, eliminating unnecessary bulk and weight. The result is a harness that feels almost weightless on your body but provides robust support when you´re hanging.

The butterfly shape of the waist belt is a masterpiece of ergonomic engineering. It optimally distributes loads across your hips and lower back, significantly enhancing hanging comfort and reducing pressure points during long belays or extended hangdog sessions.

The use of essential padding only and further details such as the 20 mm aluminum Slide Block buckle on the waist belt and the new, far more flexible tie-in loop reduce the weight and enable a compact pack size. The Helios packs down so small it will easily find a place in any pack, making it perfect for long approaches and alpine missions where every gram and every inch of space counts.

The leg loops can be individually adjusted using 15 mm Slide Block buckles. This allows for a perfectly tailored fit, whether you´re wearing thin shorts in the summer or multiple layers for a cold-weather climb. Textile sleeves over the buckles protect the webbing against premature wear, ensuring the durability and longevity you expect from EDELRID. Four symmetrical, high-strength gear loops offer ample space for your rack, while two attachment options for ice screw clips make the Helios a versatile choice for year-round climbing.

Edelrid Helios harness review

2025/09/17

Elias

Excellent harness for long climbing sesions or long periods of time hanging. Previously owned a BD Solution (that is very confortable), but this harness is way more confortable, the pads on the back ensure that even after 40+ mins hanging, it won't hurt or even feel uncoftable. I've made couple of multi pitches with it and I'm very pleased. Also, it's amazing the way it holds the weight of 20+ quickdraws plus all the multipitch equipment, with out dropping. The extra pouch it's very handy for keys, coins or candy for long multipitches or easy of access during alpine climbings or glacier crossing. The only disadvantage or non so usual feature, is the dynema belay loop. It's significantly more slim that "normal" harnesses, so it takes time to get us to it or trust it, but it's 100% secure.
